City Breaks

As November settles in, we've been checking the weather patterns across some of Europe's most captivating cities, and we've found four absolute crackers right now. Early autumn sunshine is still gracing Lisbon and Seville, whilst across the border in Morocco, Fes and Marrakech are entering that glorious sweet spot where the intense heat of summer has finally given way to gorgeously mild temperatures. Whether you're after atmospheric medinas, riverside strolls, or simply wandering through centuries of history without melting, these four have something rather special going on at the moment.

What's particularly lovely about this time of year is that you'll dodge the summer crowds whilst still catching plenty of blue skies. The evenings are pleasantly cool, which means you can actually explore on foot without collapsing by lunchtime, and there's something rather magical about these cities as they ease into their quieter season. If you've been thinking about a city break but keep putting it off, honestly, November is calling.
